One Who Loved by Mana

03. Siblings Bonding

The Grimoires Ceremony for her brother is finally over. His is rather average for size, but it's considerably thick also. It's like a prism, if looked from different sides it showed different colors each time. It's consist of 7 colors, like the rainbow. Like usual, it has that three clover leaves, symbolic for their country's pride. It also has some unique design to it. Like the four corners of the grimoire, it has this curves design and circles around it they can't put a name to it. Let's just say overall, it's great.

"Maaan~ I can't wait for the Magic Knight Exam to start!" Macsen excitedly said, jumping all over. He held the grimoire close to his chest, brimming with smile.

"Calm down Macsen, you need to wait for 6 months to come," Their father laugh heartheteadly at his son behavior. He patted his head, trying to calming him down.

"But I can't waittt~!" He wailed while crying fake tears.

"Are you gonna train Macsen?" The youngest of the Regenbo asked. Her hands holding tight to her father.

"Of course!" He spinned back, showing a thumbs up. He hopped several way back while giddily hold his grimoire up.

"Can I join you?" She let go of her father's grip. Following her brother's excited pace.

"Sure!"

"Yeaaayyy!"

"Now, now, calm down. Macsen, you can train but be careful. And Giselle, you still need to do your study before you can join your brother," Their father gives explanation.

""Okay!"" Both said.

~***~

Macsen is busy with his swords training. He tried to imbued his magic to his sword to enchanted it's power. Much like the Black Bull captain he heard rumors of. The silver blade of his sword now painted in combination color of red and yellow. He gripped it in a position that will not make his hands hurt. He lifted it, right above his head before swinging it down fast until it slashed the boulder in front of him in half.

He stepped back, gasping for air. Her rub his forehead to wipe off the sweat. He put the sword back to its scabbard with a quick slashing through. He checked damage he had done to the boulder.

"Well done Sir Macsen!" His mentor compliment him. He clapped his hands as he stepped forward to the young Regenbo. He rub his chin with two fingers, gazing at the halved boulders, "The boulder I created usually is too big for beginners to cut through, but you did it excellently!"

"Thank you for your praise!" He bowed, showing gratitude.

"Hohoho! No need to thank me, you're just simply excel at this!" He keeps singing praises to him.

"Macsen!" A feminine voice called for him. He look to the source and found his sister there, running up to him. She wear a white tunic with the arms bubbled on the lower parts and was tied into a bowtie. The body part only reach into her waist, with frills. Around it she wears a belt, although rather loose. She also strapped a sword into it. With brown scabbard and blue handle made out of skin and used a yellow crystal as a decoration. She used pants, something rarely used by women especially nobles. With bluish in color and boots that matches any landscape.

"Elle!" Her brother waved to her, greeting as she approach.

"I'm done with my study! Can I join you now?"

"You're already done? Damn you're smarter than I am,"

"Someone gotta have the brain in the house,"

"Ohoho~ smug little shit, bring it on!"

Both stepped back a few meters away, leaving dust in their trail. They leave Macsen's mentor behind, in the middle of their sparring. They just agree on a glance that he will be the judge. They draw their swords at the same time ready in position.
